Progress in Magnetic Resonance Thoracic Ductography

Shuo Chen, Jinming Qiu, Yuanfeng Chen, Renhua Wu and Yikai Xu

Intra The thoracic duct is the largest lymphatic vessel in the body and is divided into many types based on its variable morphology and anatomical position. However, it is hard to be imaged because of its spindly structure and covert position. Magnetic resonance imaging provides good prospects for non-invasive detection of the thoracic duct. This article reviews the progress in magnetic resonance thoracic ductography.
